What are the sizes used for the iOS application sp

Question

I am developing an application using the iOS SDK. I need to know what Default splash screen sizes I need.

Answer 1

With universal app I had iPad splash screen showing up in simulator but not on device. The iPad would instead show the Default.png splash for the iPhone. The Default-Landscape.png and Default-Portrait.png files existing, so wth? Resolution should be correct since I created the screen captures using Window | Organizer | Screenshots and used 'Save as Default Image' for the iPad, then just renamed it.

Turns out (from my one app anyways) the two iPad screen shots have to be moved to the Resources-iPad directory. Then it all works fine. Seems obvious now, but in case anyone else has lost sleep over this... -Larry

Answer 4

With iOS 7+, static Launch Images are now deprecated.

You should create a custom view that composes slices of images, which sizes to all screens like a normal UIViewController view.

2018 Update - Please don't use this info !

I'm leaving the below post for reference purposes.

Please read Apple's documentation Human Interface Guidelines - Launch Screens for details on launch screens and recommendations.

Thanks

July 2012 - As this reply is rather old, but stills seems popular. I've written a blog post based on Apple's doco and placed it on my blog. I hope you guys find it useful.

Yes. In iPhone/iPad development the Default.png file is displayed by the device automatically so you don't have to program it which is really useful. I don't have it with me, but you need different PNGs for the iPad with specific names. I googled iPad default png and got this info from the phunkwerks site:

iPad Launch Image Orientations

To deal with various orientation options, a new naming convention has been created for iPad launch images. The screen size of the iPad is 768×1024, notice in the dimensions that follow the height takes into account a 20 pixel status bar.

Filename Dimensions

• Default-Portrait.png * — 768w x 1024h
• Default-PortraitUpsideDown.png — 768w x 1024h
• Default-Landscape.png ** — 1024w x 748h
• Default-LandscapeLeft.png — 1024w x 748h
• Default-LandscapeRight.png — 1024w x 748h
• iPad-Retina–Portrait.png — 1536w x 2048h
• iPad-Retina–Landscape.png — 2048w x 1496h
• Default.png — Not recommended

*—If you have not specified a Default-PortraitUpsideDown.png file, this file will take precedence.

**—If you have not specified a Default-LandscapeLeft.png or Default-LandscapeRight.png image file, this file will take precedence.

This link to "Apple's Developer Library" is useful, too.
